Abstract excerpt
To search for the chromosome regions for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting meat quality in pigs, a three-generation resource family was developed in China using three Large White grand sires and seven Meishan grand dams. A total of 147 F2 progenies derived from two populations in 1998 (n = 81) and 2000 (n = 66) were phenotyped for meat quality. All animals were typed for 48 microsatellite markers covering...
